Φρεγάτα κλάσης Constellation FFG-62 / Φώτο: U.S. Navy

“Join the Navy,” they said, “Capture all the Pokemons”.

When it all said and done, I learnt to never let my imaginations scare me from my experience. The saddest thing I can imagine now is to have stop this piece in 2020. I started this piece in 2019, somewhere around December as a result of a movie I watch which I know everyone knows by now released in 2012. Battleship caught my attention for several reason from storyline to cast. Two people caught my attention. @taylorkitsch and @badgalriri . Seeing Rihanna in this movie, I couldn't hide my joy and so curious to see how see played her role. Honestly see really nailed it and till date, some scenes keeps playing in my head. Her energy, looks, courage to work in the navy among men, composure and along with some other things I couldn't just mention them even made me for in love with the whole movie more. Even tho it a movie and a role she had to play according to her script, damn, she was on fire so I decided have a portrait of her from the movie. Having screenshots of scene from the movie to checking the web to see what I could use, and finally I came across one which I used, wasn't an easy task though. Saved this image for some years before commencing in 2019 and finally completed with this piece. This is the most complicated and most tedious image I have worked on which I nearly gave up in 2020 somewhere around June which I was also going through some rough stage in my personal life. I great friend by name @euniceforson always checked up on me everyday to keep me going from waking me up at 5:30am - 6:00am to set to work, demanding for shots of prove to show I was really working. She really gave me a hard time but till I started showing a positive mental attitude towards work. When I was done with this piece, for the first time in my art career, I invited her to come over and sign right above mine because if not for her motivation, generosity, kindness and support, this piece wouldn't have been completed by now. Massive respect to @pberg44 For directing this movie. *Rihanna* (Cora Raikes) Battleship Piece Completed 🖌️✏️👨🏾‍🎨 . #annorokatajoshua #navy #usanavy #battleship #rihanna #rihannadrawing #art #peterberg #artist #pencilrealism #stillwerise #ariseandshine https://www.instagram.com/p/CYJwpMzqyy-/?utm_medium=tumblr
